A warm, caring childminder

5 stars

Our twin boys were cared for by Tracey from the age of 18 months to 4 years, and we couldn’t have asked for a more nurturing, supportive, and enriching environment for those vital early years. From the very beginning, it was clear that Tracey treats every child in her care as if they were her own — with love, patience, and an incredible attentiveness to their individual needs.

With the support of her wonderful assistants, she provided a safe, welcoming space where our children thrived emotionally, socially, and intellectually. We were constantly impressed by the range of activities they offered, always thoughtfully designed to encourage learning through play, spark curiosity, and help the children build confidence and independence.

Tracey created a strong emotional foundation for our children. They always felt secure, understood, and truly cared for — and as parents, that gave us such peace of mind. We watched our little ones grow into a confident, happy, and kind children under her guidance.

We will always be deeply grateful for the love and care Tracey and her team gave to our family, and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a childminder who goes above and beyond in every way.
